About this listen
The iconic bestseller Prisoners of Geography, now fully updated with brand new content to reflect the changing global geopolitical landscape since it was first published in 2015
‘One of the best books about geopolitics you could imagine.’ Evening Standard
Prisoners of Geography is the book people need to understand what’s happening in the news today, from China’s ambitions to the conflicts in Ukraine and Gaza.
Bestselling author and geopolitics expert Tim Marshall looks at the past, present and future to offer crucial insights into one of the major factors that determines world history – because if you don’t know geography, you’ll never have the full picture.
This completely revised and updated edition brings the classic text up to date with the events and trends of the past decade, with new material including:
• the Russia–Ukraine war and Moscow's alliances with authoritarian states
• the conflicts in the Middle East
• China’s growing military and strategic power, and its stance on Taiwan
• American global power and pivot to the Pacific
• Europe’s leaning towards more extreme politics, increased defence spending, and the new ‘Iron Curtain’
• Japan's remilitarisation and increasing power
• great power play in Africa
• the growth of Indian economic and military strength
Read Tim Marshall’s geopolitical primers (Prisoners of Geography, The Power of Geography and The Future of Geography) to understand what’s happening in our fast-changing world.
